@aaronventure I don't think audio out from sound generators is possible in FX plugins. Were you referring to this setting?

@obolig said in Reveal Location selector with WhiteBox Packages:

Many installers for Mac provide a "Location" or "Destination" column where the user is given the choice to specify the location they would like to install the samples (as shown below).

Firstly, how does one reveal this additional column using WhiteBox Packages.

Secondly, is it possible to use the selected destination update a user defined setting (AKA environment variable)?

We are all about dong custom installers these days... check this thread:

@Lindon Yes, you are correct, and Thx that was what I was looking for

@d-healey Ah, ok. Totally missed that. Thanks!

@paper_lung Sounds like it. You can also test it. If you click on the keyboard icon in the top right corner, you'll see the realtime voice count. So play it, do some brute force testing for edge cases and find a comfortable number.

It does not need to be a multitude of 8.

Awesome Lindon!!! Yes, I am learning this now and was able to get the specific gain modulation through the script FX and add to the send container. I got stuck when exporting, but now learned how to compile the effects because I used a timer. I will be working on the pitch effect next. You rock, this was the correct way. My favorite word when things like this come up is "Yet" never says never, just not yet!!! There is a way somewhere, Never stop learning!!!

@elemen8t I followed this tutorial and Im still doing that way.

@Dan-Korneff said in Graphics.fillPath():

@Lindon namespace issue?

possibly - tho I checked the namespace stuff, but I recompiled everything and its working OK now... very likely user error.

@ulrik said in Custom popup values help:

@rzrsharpeprod the percentage knob spits out a value between 0-1, and using

local gain2 = 50 * Math.log10(value);

on that value will result in a value between -100 and -11, and the saturation need a value between 0-1 so you could have set the percentage knobs value directly to the saturator, but you wanted 100% (1.0) in the ui to set a value of 60% (0.6) in the saturator so...

A good way to check that the value you're about to set to a module, other component etc.. will fit to that range. Use

Console.print(value) in your callbacks

Awesome, thankyou. I appreciate the assistance and the pointers :)

@d-healey It had done in the other script I had but not in this one... when I checked, the zip was only 4kB!

Reworked the script and now it's all working; moves the sample zip, extracts it, deletes the zip and then deletes the temp folder that it installs to.

Thanks for nudging me in the right direction 👍

@Mors said in Exporting FX Plugin Issues:

When i click to export - AU - it does say 'Batch file already found, do you want to rewrite the batch file? no matter whether i click ok or no i still get this error, any ideas?

I'm on Mac OS & HISE 3.6.2

OK lets start wit this. When HISE compiles anything it writes a batch file to get the projucer working, so this message shows up every time you re-run a compile, unless you clean the Build folder first, as there will be a batch file already present from your last compile attempt - you can safely say "OK" to this

@tsempire comme ça peut être

Now we know how you can be answering questions here all the time, whether it's 4am or 4pm.

The silly forum algorithm thinks it got you, but it's just shooting itself in the foot.

@Allen said in drawing complex lfo:

Hi there! I decide to add a vector synthesis module to my project and I wonder how could draw lfo like this in Maxmsp?

I know I probably could do this with the Webview and Javascript but I wanna make sure if i missed something simple.

look for the corresponding Lissajous algo.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lissajous_curve

@yall Okay great!

One last thing, what's the lfo module name in the scriptnodes?

Btw, thank you guys for your help! @DabDab @yall

@iamlamprey said in Where has the Macro edit table gone?:

@d-healey i think you need

Engine.setFrontendMacros(var nameList)

and I think nameList is like ["Macro1", "Macro2", "Macro3"] etc

https://docs.hise.audio/scripting/scripting-api/engine/index.html#setfrontendmacros

Thanks. That seems like the solution. The other docs need updating :)

@d-healey said in custom user preset problem devlop branch:

Engine.loadUserPreset(list[value] + ".preset");

oh thank u ;)

@Straticah I think you more or less have hit upon the best solution, and this sort of issue isn't at all unique to HISE. Understanding the gain added/reduced by any one particular effect, sampler, or synth in isolation and compensating it with a nonlinear gain node is probably the solution, outside of compression which as @ustk hinted at, can squash the sound or introduce unwanted artefacts.

Personally when working on FX I'll introduce a gain node in my scriptFx chain which does precisely this. I do agree that it would be nice to have a meter node which could help us analyse the gain output at any point in the chain, but at the end of the day you have to trust your ears!
